Waynesboro Fall Foliage Art Show 2026

The Waynesboro Fall Foliage Art Show 2026, produced by the Shenandoah Valley Art Center (SVAC), is an annual outdoor juried exhibition held on the historic downtown streets of Waynesboro, Virginia, on October 10‑11, 2026. The show features over 150 fine artists across a range of media—including painting, photography, sculpture, glass, wood, jewelry, fiber, and pottery—and attracts roughly 20,000 visitors. Artists submit four images of their work and one of their display setup, pay a $25 jury fee and a booth fee (single booth $295), and must be present for the full duration of the two‑day event. The call is open to all artists, with emerging artists especially encouraged to apply. Works must be original, handcrafted, and not mass‑produced or kit‑based; no agents are permitted, and artists must remain on‑site. The exhibition provides each artist with a 10’ × 11’ booth, complimentary coffee and snacks, extensive marketing (print, radio, TV, digital), and the opportunity to win from a $9,000 prize pool, including a $2,000 Best in Show award. Applications close at 11:59 p.m. EDT on July 29, 2026. The show is recurring (annual) and not a rolling call.
